Notis

Turn verified web research into a CommCare lookup table

Keep reference data moving from website research into the CommCare structures your team uses.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create Lookup Table

Create a lookup table in a domain.

Why this helps

Reference details gathered from websites can sit in notes while someone still has to create the corresponding CommCare lookup table.

  • Surface reference data on a predictable schedule
  • Create a lookup table when the data and domain are specified
  • Keep the setup request and its run report together

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgentQL and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis what reference data to gather, which CommCare domain to use, and when to create a lookup table; supply any required values the apps do not provide.
  • 4Choose a notis_cron schedule and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example and check the resulting table.

Questions about this workflow

Will this infer missing reference values?

No. Provide the required values and domain details if AgentQL and CommCare do not return them.

What permission is needed to create a table?

The CommCare connection needs Edit Apps permission.
